Capable of throughput up to 6,000 Mb/s, the Nighthawk AX8 AX6000 Wi-Fi Router from Netgear supports Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), a wireless standard that allows for faster Wi-Fi speeds, more simultaneous upload and download streams, and greater energy efficiency for battery-powered wireless clients than previous Wi-Fi standards.
Equipped with four internal antennas, five 10/100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet LAN port, one 10/100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet WAN port, and a pair of USB 3.0/3.1 Gen 1 Type-A ports, the Wi-Fi 6-enabled Nighthawk AX8 AX6000 supports OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access) and multi-user MIMO (Multiple Input and Multiple Output) to deliver faster and more reliable Wi-Fi connections compared to Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac). The router also boasts a Smart Connect feature that selects the best Wi-Fi band for your devices, allowing for a single network name for both wireless bands, as well as voice control via Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.

Best extender that I’ve tried in my network. I bought 2 of these extenders because I have over 4000 sq ft to cover and I need ethernet ports in each location. They resolved my dropout issues for high end high resolution music streaming. I highly recommend AX80 extender.

This new combo unit is a terrific upgrade from my previous combo unit. It looks nicer and works so much better. The wifi coverage is far better and reaches further as well. I am very happy with this purchase.

I am very happy with this new router/modem. I get great speeds, and I’m saving money, by getting rid of the cable modem I’ve been using for years. I do plan to add a few extenders due to the size of my home. Otherwise, great product! I would recommend this to a friend any day.

The latest netgear cable modem router combo CAX80 is a superb player in delivering excellent speeds and performance. I have a gigabit internet but never have seen the full potential of it with my previous modems. Switching to CAX80 made me realize how blazingly fast internet speeds could be. So I strongly recommend this router for people who want to take advantage of their full internet speeds. Only issue I see is the Nighthawk app responds slow while enabling and disabling the network access for devices from the app. Otherwise the device overall is an excellent purchase.

It was easy to install and the WiFi mesh extenders worked great together. The onboard software notifies me every time a new device logs on to my network. It also shared my printer with no configuration needed.

Pricey but you get what you pay for. Can handle multiple devices streaming videos and gaming all at once. My household definitely has over 12 devices connected at once and after getting the AX12 router it made a significant difference in speed and ranger. Very good router.

Quite simply, this extender does exactly what we needed in our large home. Internet reception was poor in one corner of the house before, but now the coverage is even regardless of where we are. Excellent product from NETGEAR. Not the lowest priced out there, but well worth it.

Thank you team Netgear for creating a device that ensures my family and I stay connected to our most essential home smart devices that keep us safe day and night. I will continue to purchase Netgear devices due to their quality and durability.

This would be five stars if it had a hardwire port to connect from your main router to the mesh extender!

Good router, fast but not as fast as suggested. App is almost worthless and stays speeds are far greater than what independent speed test says. But, yes this is still a fast router
